I believe this is coming from gettime; I have submitted a patch to
suppress its output.  It runs with a desync, which sleeps for a while
before executing the command, to avoid network load; this is why the
time of the message doesn't match the crontab entry...

We use the vendor cron, so there's no easy way for us to add anything
to the email it sends to identify the source...
